"Les danseuses" (The Dancers) is a celebrated painting by the French Impressionist and Realist artist Jean-Louis Forain (1852–1931). Created in the late 19th century, this work exemplifies Forain's fascination with the world of Parisian entertainment and his focus on the social and psychological aspects of modern life. The painting depicts a group of ballet dancers, a common subject in the oeuvre of Forain, who often explored the behind-the-scenes reality of the performers' lives.

Forain was known for his keen observation and the ability to capture candid moments in the everyday lives of his subjects. In "Les danseuses," he portrays the dancers in a moment of rest or casual interaction, providing a glimpse into their off-stage personas and the dynamics of their environment. The composition, brushwork, and use of light reflect the influence of his Impressionist contemporaries, while the subject matter shows a connection to the Realist tradition of depicting the working class and their conditions.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its social commentary. Forain's dancers are not idealized; they are presented as working women, whose grace on stage contrasts with their possibly fatigued or pensive states off stage. This juxtaposition invites viewers to consider the complexities of the performers' lives and the entertainment industry of the time.

"Les danseuses" is part of Forain's broader contribution to late 19th-century French art, where he stands alongside figures like Edgar Degas, who similarly captured the world of ballet. However, Forain's approach is often noted for its more incisive and sometimes satirical edge. The painting is held in high regard by art historians and critics for its insightful portrayal of Parisian society and the human condition, as well as for its technical execution that bridges the gap between Impressionism and the emerging modernist sensibilities of the early 20th century.
